Is an interest in video game development /g/ worthy, or does it place you in the same tier as /v/ babbies?

Personally, I think it's a legitimate pursuit. This is anecdotal, but I find it to be the least boring facet of computer science by far. However, it's hard for me to internally destigmatize the association video games and NEET leech manchildren.
I find *playing* video games to be an unproductive waste of time by and large, and I won't hesitate to show the door to any /v/irgins who bring their autistic gaymen benchmarks to this board.

I was just giving my take on it. So what if I don't know what to do with my life. This topic should still be discussed.

Well you can at least not make the mistake of writing the entire thing in a failed abortion like Java.

So what are you getting at? You want to become one of those virulent bile spewing """developers""" that both hates games and people who play them?

Yes and obviously in your case yes.

Maybe. I don't think I'd be that much of a cunt (publicly anyway). I just hate how much of my time games took from me. I don't hate people who play games as much as I just don't understand them, so I find it to be a safe assumption that most of them are either children/teenagers or people with no drive to be productive. But even if I didn't care about participating in society, I would still feel like I'm not gaining anything from playing games.

My parents always put it in my head that I was smarter than others and filled me with pressure to impress, whenever I did anything that was less than perfect or failed it was always because I was being lazy or just didn't want to succeed
My fear of failure has paralyzed me in life, all my peers have left me behind in successful careers while I dropped out of college because unlike regular grade school I was actually working on things I didn't already know and my results were never good enough. I can't even make myself apply for jobs because the prospect of being turned down terrifies me, and the escape of video games where I can retry until I succeed, or be better than others fills the hole in my life.
I don't even know how to program, I'm completely useless.

What? This doesn't make sense. You obviously played a lot of videogames, so how can you possibly not understand people who play videogames?

Because I don't really know what I was thinking. I don't know what I thought games were doing for me. It even got to a point where I was playing games out of obligation. I completed almost every single Sonic the Hedgehog game for some reason. Games were just 'what I did'. I was just a kid with no sense of responsibility who didn't know how to think forward. Then when I was 16, I began to feel like I was unable to enjoy games all of a sudden. It drove me insane. I felt like there was something wrong with me. I spent a bunch of time trying to figure out how to get my enthusiasm for games back, but I eventually realized that games were the problem in the first place. It wasn't a problem that games weren't entertaining me anymore, it was a blessing that I finally came around to having some baseline sense of being productive.
